Jeff, looking at this again I was testing on two machines the server using
perc 5 the script created the file with no issues. 

The problem seems an older server using perc 3 when I use the script it will
not create the character file. I believe its because its not registered in
the devices files or im not using the correct raid driver.

lsmod | grep raid
megaraid               40402  2
aacraid                55617  2
scsi_mod              130637  6
sg,megaraid,aic7xxx,scsi_transport_spi,aacraid,sd_mod

lspci | grep RAID
02:02.1 RAID bus controller: Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller 3/Si
(rev 01)
03:04.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec RAID subsystem HBA (rev 01)

sh -x ./megarpt
+ VERSION=0.3
+ MEGACTL=/root/megactl
+ DEVICE=/dev/megadev0
+ DEVICENAME=megadev
+ DEVICEPERM=644
++ basename ./megarpt
+ ME=megarpt
+ '[' -x /root/megactl ']'
++ /root/megactl -V

++ grep megadev /proc/devices
++ awk '{print $1}'

Paul, it would be nice to see the output of "sh -x megasasrpt". Thanks!
